I'm a native Japanese speaker. I speak standard Japanese, Kansai dialect and Tosa (Kochi) dialect. I also speak English and some Mandarin Chinese. I've learned Spanish, Hebrew and Russian so far. I'm learning German at the moment.

My username Usako (うさこ) came from USAGI (うさぎ), the Japanese word for rabbit. I love USAGI so much.

These are some of the Japanese books and films I recommend for Japanese language learners.
